Endocrine Disruption

[Downthestretch55]

I wasn't going to post about this.
I've been very "bummed" since last week when Boubon Streettune spontaneously aborted the Best of Luck foal she was carrying. I kept looking for reasons, as she has already foaled three nice foals.
Sure, I figured this kind of stuff happens, especially with critters as fragile as thoroughbreds. Still, it hit me pretty hard.
I had prepaid the stud fee, all the costs of keeping her, and she was only two months away from the day.
She's still a nice mare. I intend to breed her again, and the vet made sure she's ok. She's fine. That was my main concern.
Yet it seems to me that something else was happening.
Then I came across this:

Be careful, all females! Endocrine disruption due to environmental causes might be something to consider. Eat organic (Bourbon did).
Dang! What is this world coming to?
BUMMER!
